Finally, the details have been nailed down!

The Eaker family is inviting FReepers to a Texas Cowboy Memorial Shoot.

The date will be May 6th, starting time will be 10:00 a.m.. The location will be sent via FReepmail (if you are interested in attending send me a message). The cost will be $15.00 per person.

After the shoot, everyone is invited back to The Compound to stuff themselves with TheMom's Kick-Ass Enchilada's (it is advised to wear stretch pants).

I just discovered Bud K knives in Moultrie, Georgia.
I dunno if this counts, but this Friday I shall be dropping a fairly large sum on some Cold Steel blades (chisa katana, synthetic boken, and san-mai magnum tanto)
I'll still unload a few bricks in TC's memory, but my heart's glee will be reflected most truly in a steel edge :)

chisa katana, synthetic boken, and san-mai magnum tanto

Not sure what that means in English but it sounds cool.

[King Prout]

a "katana" is a Japanese longsword, single-edged and chisel-tipped.
a "chisa" katana is shorter but heavier than a normal katana. For some reason, this blade "spoke" to me when I held it last Friday (I refuse to purchase a long blade without first laying hand on it - just not wise to do otherwise)
a "tanto" is a knife styled like a katana
a "magnum" tanto is a LONG tanto with a sword-like handguard
"san-mai" means "five layers" - a san-mai blade is one forged from five laminated layers of steel, having different mechanical properties, allowing a better balance of hardness and toughness than single-billet forgings
a "boken" is a practice sword

if you want to see what I'm getting, check out (88BCK)
magnum tanto (13MBXIII)
synthetic boken (92BK)

[King Prout]

guns are wonderful - I own several.

however: they are heavy, loud, delicate, and run out of ammunition.

sometimes a good sword is the tool of choice ;)

Good job, and you managed to avoid all the smarta$$es that would have flocked to a "How do I post pics?" thread.:)

[King Prout]

you done good then :)

OPERATION SALSA CHILE DROP HAS COMMENCED!

Woo Hoo!

I love it when a plan comes together!

I love that picture of the Cowboy - thanks for posting it.

[El Gato]

Note the Mattel logo.

Yeh, well I figured that part was photo shopped, but that maybe the rest of the weapon actually existed, and that you might bring it.

Plus I was being a little silly myself.

[Eaker]

I wish I had one but there isn't money in the budget to meet all of the guv requirements to own one.

[TheMom]

Salsa Chile arrive safe & sound.

It looks really great - can't wait to taste it.
